Actor Jesse Williams has revealed that he’s “nervous” and “excited” about taking his clothes off for his next role in Take Me Out (not the British dating show).
Williams will go from Grey’s Anatomy to gay’s anatomy as he plays “the lead role of Darren Lemming, a star baseball player who must overcome prejudice from teammates and friends after he reveals he’s gay.”
And how does he feel about waving his baseball bat around?

While on the Ellen Show recently, Williams spoke about the ‘lengthy’ full-frontal scene which takes place.
“The character does call for a little bit of nudity, so what I will say about that is it’s terrifying in all the right ways,” he said. “I’m looking to be challenged in new ways. To be scared and excited, to be pushed. One of the beautiful things about the job that I’ve had for so long is the comfort it creates. So, I’m excited to do something new.”
Take Me Out is expected to open on Broadway in spring 2022 at the Helen Hayes Theater.
